I am currently using a pair of wireless Bluetooth earphones I bought from a local store for RM 59 ( usd20) some time ago. Looks a ripoff from the LG design iem. Few problems with this unit. 1. There is a flashing blue and red light when I use it. Annoying since I use it at night. Disturbing...

Hi,   Sorry to resurrect an old thread. It shows that I keep using it until now. The sponges which cover the drivers are deteriorating on mind. Any ideas what would be a good replacement? The pads itself is still fine. I did try to recycle my old Philips HP890 pads on these, since I like the...

Quote: Interesting. I will let you know with the ALC1150 codec on the Asus Z87i-pro motherboard when I get it. Which is probably next week earliest. I can almost certainly say that any chip is better than my Asus U46SV laptop Sonic Focus sound card. I had a LGA775 which had ALC888 and that...

The hifi still works. This hifi is about 15 years old now. Bought in US and bought a transformer to go with it to use in a country with 240V. Just recently (a month) this humming noise started to occur. It hums in standby mode. The humming noise is constant and in two tones. It alternates...

Quote:   Thanks. Please let us know. Asus Z87 boards all come with ALC1150.

Quote: I want to build a HTPC/Steambox/Gaming PC/Work PC with the lowest TDP without sacrificing performance. I need low TDP as my ambient temp is between 26-36C throughout the year. It will be connected to at least 1 1080p TV with an additional one standard desktop monitor 1080p monitor...

Quote: Thanks about that. Any recommendations for socket 1150?

Quote:   I see. I did not know that. Thanks for the reply. Might as well wait for the Asus.

Then it is an ALC codec?

Which motherboard should I go with? The Gigabyte has a creative sound card. The ROG has a supreme impact sound card. I can't find details of the Creative chip on Gigabyte's website. Also I don't know what is the Asus codec. Maybe a Xonar or a Realtek-ALC codec?   Thanks for the feedback. 

Quote: Budget mentioned in post above :) I think the headphones you mentioned are out of my budget Quote:   Got the HTF 600. They are quite good headphones-soundwise. I can imagine wearing them for a long time. The clamping force is adequate to strong, slightly stronger than my...

Quote: Thanks, just what I wanted to know Quote:   Already bought the HTF600. Thanks for the recommendation. Will look at the Sony MA900's in future
